Synopsis (short abstract) The compounded impacts of the war in Ukraine and adverse climatic conditions underline the urgency of supporting the livelihoods of the most vulnerable farming households in the Republic of Moldova. In addition to the impacts of the war in Ukraine, the Republic of Moldova has a high level of exposure and vulnerability to hydrometeorological hazards, which became more unpredictable and increased in frequency and severity because of climate change. This document presents a summary of the context, outputs, activities and funding requirements of the Rapid response plan (RRP) of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) in the Republic of Moldova. Through the RRP, FAO is calling on resource partners to contribute to addressing the immediate needs of agriculture-dependent communities and tackling the urgent challenges of the Moldovan agrifood system. The RRP aims to prioritize interventions that can mitigate the short- and medium-term effects of the current crisis.

Syrian Arab Republic: Humanitarian Response Plan 2023 2023

Also available in:

No results found.

With the conflict now in its thirteenth year, the Syrian Arab Republic continues to face insecurity, economic crisis, drought-like conditions and severe agroclimatic fluctuations. An estimated 12.1 million people are food insecure, of which 49 percent live in rural areas. Without urgent support, an additional 2.9 million people are at risk of becoming food insecure. Humanitarian response to support farming and livestock‑keeping families with restoring their production is critical. Every USD 1 invested to help a farmer grow wheat yields more than 4.5 times its value in staple food produced, for that family, their local community and markets.

Yemen: Humanitarian Response Plan 2023 2023

Also available in:

No results found.

After eight years of armed conflict, Yemen remains one of the world’s most complex humanitarian crises. More than half of the country’s population, around 17 million people, are acutely food insecure. A crippled economy, climatic shocks and climbing food prices place already vulnerable households at further risk. Restoring agricultural production – a critical source of food and income for rural households in Yemen – is fundamental to the humanitarian response.

El Niño: Anticipatory Action and Response Plan, August–December 2023
Mitigating the expected impacts of El Niño-induced climate extremes on agriculture and food security
2023

Also available in:

No results found.

There is a greater than 90 percent chance that El Niño will continue through the end of 2023, and international climate agencies forecast a moderate to strong El Niño continuing into 2024. This will increase the likelihood of extreme weather and climate hazards, ranging from drought to floods and storms. By disrupting rainfall and temperature patterns, El Niño may strongly impact agriculture, rural livelihoods and food security. Such early warnings clearly call for early action. FAO’s El Niño Anticipatory Action and Response Plan requires urgent funding to deliver immediate support in a number of identified countries around the world, based on analysis of historical trends, latest seasonal forecasts, agricultural seasonality and the vulnerability of populations at risk.
